Stepmother: I Am Asked To Give A Kidney To My Half-Brother Novel - Chapter 338
Chapter 338: Wait
With that, they ended the call.
Although Xu Xiaojing said it nicely, she did not give a concrete answer. She was only dragging things out! But now, Tang Wenyi could only place her hope on the other party! Thinking of this, she threw her phone angrily! It was clearly a win-win situation, but she had become the weaker party!
Just because I’m no longer useful?
What a pragmatic fellow! But it is good that this has helped me see my best friend’s true colors. I will use Xu Xiaojing as a stepping stone and when I don’t need her anymore, I will abandon her! With me suppressing her, I don’t believe that this person can make a comeback!
On the other side.
Xu Xiaojing did not take the phone conversation seriously at all. After all, the matter of Tang Wenyi taking over as the company’s business director had just been decided. In addition, the other members of the Tang family were a little ashamed to mention it, so the news release was delayed and did not spread to the outside world.
Well, she did not earn the position.
If others knew that they had hired the brainless Tang Wenyi into the group, what would the people who did not know the truth think of them? Would they think that there was no one sober in the Tang family? It was really embarrassing just thinking about it.
After Xu Xiaojing finished her spa session and took a beauty sleep, she slowly returned home. She looked at the middle-aged man sitting on the sofa watching television and said in surprise, “Jiacheng? Why are you back so early today? Hasn’t it been quite busy at Xingwei recently?”
The middle-aged man in a suit with a big belly looked up in response, with a wretched smile on his oily fat face that made people cringe. However, Xu Xiaojing did not seem to notice anything. Instead, she hugged him warmly.
“I dealt with the company matters in advance, so I thought I’d come back to see you.”
Lei Jiacheng touched his wife’s slender waist in a habitual manner. Then the woman in his arms said coquettishly, “Aiya, why are you so anxious? How many years has it been? You’re still like this! If outsiders see this, will your image be tarnished?”
“Don’t worry, they won’t see it. Besides… Don’t you like it, little hussy?”
He pinched Xu Xiaojing’s face and couldn’t help but feel a little restless. Just as the two of them were about to get together, he saw her frown suddenly as if she had encountered a problem. He asked curiously, “Wife, what’s wrong? You don’t seem to be in a good mood.”
“… Well, it’s not a big deal. Hubby, do you remember Tang Wenyi? The third daughter of the Tang family.”
Tang Wenyi?
Lei Jiacheng dug out the relevant past from his distant memories. If he didn’t remember wrongly, it was that person with attitude.Speaking of which, they hadn’t been in contact for a while. He heard that the other party hadn’t been doing well recently. But why did his wife mention it for no reason?
“I know her.”
It was good that he knew. It saved her the trouble of explaining.
Xu Xiaojing continued, “She came to me today and said that she wanted to cooperate with Xingwei Medical Group. I didn’t intend to say anything about this at first, but I was afraid that she would pester me again later. No matter what, she’s still a member of the Tang family. Anyway, I’ve already told you now. If she’s rejected, it’s not something I can interfere with.”
However, when she turned around, she saw that her husband had fallen into deep thought. She was about to continue what she had just said, but now that Lei Jiacheng had such a strange expression, she sensed that something was wrong. She asked carefully, “Jiacheng? Is this matter difficult to handle? But isn’t she just an unfavored young lady? What’s there to be troubled about?
If you don’t want to offend anyone, why don’t we just send someone to decline?”
Lei Jiacheng said with a dark expression, “Let’s not be in a hurry to give an answer. If you don’t tell me about this, I might have forgotten some important news. I went out for a meal with an old friend today. He happens to be from the upper-class circle too and is more well-informed than us. Do you know what he told me?”
“What?!”
Xu Xiaojing asked. Although he didn’t know if it was true, the curiosity and admiration in her eyes were enough to lift his mood.
“I heard through the grapevine that Tang Wenyi has most likely joined the family group. At that time, I didn’t believe it. Moreover, that person didn’t seem to be sure if this was true, so I didn’t take it to heart. But now that Tang Wenyi has taken the initiative to cooperate with you, it’s very likely that she still has resources in her hands.”
Lei Jiacheng did not think that with Third Miss Tang’s arrogant personality, she would take the initiative to seek cooperation without any preparations. How could she get them to agree to the partnership without anything on hand? However, he was not in a hurry because the initiative was still in their hands. There was probably no other company that met Tang Wenyi’s requirements other than Xingwei. Now she just had to trust them.
“Huh?? The Tang family allowed Tang Wenyi, who doesn’t know anything, to go to work. Isn’t this a joke? When did they go crazy? Or have they taken leave of their senses because of her? Isn’t this too strange? Didn’t they say that she was already abandoned? What is this?”
Xu Xiaojing widened her eyes in disbelief and said, “What should we do now? My attitude was especially bad when I spoke to her. If she makes a fuss after this, won’t we be finished? Should I go and apologize to her now?”
As she spoke, she was about to get up and leave when Lei Jiacheng pulled her into his arms. A calm voice sounded in her ears. “Don’t panic. Let’s wait and see. If this matter is confirmed after some time, it won’t be too late for us to go over and talk about cooperation. Now that Third Miss Tang has made many enemies, it’s not appropriate for us to fawn over her.”
It had not been easy for Xingwei Medical Group to get to where they were today. In addition, the people who were hostile to Tang Wenyi were all big shots. None of them were people they could deal with at the moment. Therefore, he had to be more careful. He would not let anyone ruin everything easily!
Xu Xiaojing heaved a sigh of relief when she heard this. “You’re right. I didn’t react in time. Hubby is smart! Ever since I married you, I rarely used my brain. Tsk, I’ve been spoiled by you. If I’m as stupid as that Missy one day, will you still choose to be with me?”
If Tang Wenyi heard this, she would probably have lost her cool and beaten her up. What did she mean by being as stupid as her? She should at least have some brains, right?
“Little Jing, no matter what you become, I won’t leave you. Let’s continue what we didn’t finish just now…”
